Prince Caspian

This is my least favorite out of all the Narnia movies. Honestly it's very hard to place, but I think it can be put in the medium category. Because while you regconize the story despite all the changes, they did something I consider unforgivable. They changed a character's personality. There are times in movies where the storyline must change to better fit movie format. Also you might not get to know a character in a movie as well as in the book because the book was in first person. But in Prince Caspian they made Peter do the exact opposite from what he did in the books. I know that it is reasonable to usume that after years of being the high king going back to boyhood would be degrading, but when Peter gets back to Narnia there was no power struggle between him and Caspian. In the books Peter understood that it was not his Narnia anymore and he actually says to Caspian, "I haven't come to take your place, you know, but to put you into it." An essential part of Peter's character is humility and it was sorely missed in the movie. Other then that it still has elements  of the book I loved, like Reepicheep, and the centaurs. As I started this out though it is still my least favorite of the three Disney Narnia movies.
